To me, very important. Add EUR25 for a nice round EUR100 ~ USD130
Note that's in addition to already having the full open source drivers. Comparing to nVidia boards in the same price range as the ATI ones, the amount to add would be significantly higher...
Also, rereading I noticed that the two most important points on which I say you'd compete for me are board ones, not chip ones. Signal quality I assume is going to be largely an analog board issue and TV-Out also seems more a function of the board then the chip.
Total memory supported is a chip issue. In the PC world all remotely current chips support 128M or more, but I have no idea about supported memory sizes in the embedded world. It may be something you may be able to compete with on the chip side, I guess?
Daniel made a very good point with the power management documentation. That's going to be an issue even in the PC. Currently, there's a long running thread (and not the first one) about posting videoboards to get them back from suspend on LKML. It's a major pain with all of them.
